Hi there,

Thanks for your post.

It sounds like you have a solid GMAT and grades; strong international experience; some leadership and accomplishments you can likely cite, including the event management and leading a team.

Your biggest challenge is likely just that there are a lot of Indian IT applicants, so that makes it tougher for that group, but I do think you have some factors to help you stand out some, with your management/leadership experience.

Aiming for US schools outside the top 10 would give you best chances, yes... you may have a shot at schools in the 10-20 range, or maybe you'd want to apply to a few of those and a few 'safety' options a bit lower ranked (and the more competitive you are among applicants at a given school, the better chances for scholarships, which can be fairly rare fyi).

Good luck, keep us posted!
